Cathy,
How are you grouping these? If you are asking for unique values, the whole
thing has to be unique, not a single field. What data are you trying to
get? An Aggregate query may be what you need. Can you tell us what kind of
data you are filtering and what exactly you are trying to get out of it?
James

Thanks Jim. I'm saving this, as I have not been able to write a correct
nested IIf statement yet, just don't seem to get it! Am going to use the
Switch function James sent for this one, however now a new problem has come
up. This converted format was for a report header, it is a sub report with
the underlying query showing which quarter, and the year. The underlying
query is returning multiple instances of the quarter/year though I've
grouped the fields and set unique values to yes.
I'm thinking it is grouping based on the actual date, not the converted
quarter result so I get 80 rows of second quarter 2004. I have the date
field filtered by "Between [Forms]![frm_CPM_QTR_Parameter]![StartDate] And
[Forms]![frm_CPM_QTR_Parameter]![EndDate]", which is a date range inserted
in a form that opens the whole set of reports. This header was supposed to
be the final aspect so I didn't have to rename each report to show what
quarter was being reported. But this new problem is making me balder . . .
:(
Am I complicating things too much trying to find the solution? My original
report header used to have 2 unbound text boxes with these respective
control sources "=Forms!frm_CPM_QTR_Parameter!StartDate" and
"=Forms!frm_CPM_QTR_Parameter!EndDate". It showed the actual start/end
dates the user entered in the first form. But instead of full dates, I'm
needing it to show quarter/year.
Instead of trying to get the query to return a single result based on
quarter/year and place that result in the header, could I apply the same
formatting idea to these unbound boxes so the first box would show the
quarter and the last box the year?
Thank you, Cathy

Please respond to

Cathy--
There are a number of ways to do this, but a quick implementation would =
be
to place the following column in your query:
QTR: IIf(DatePart("q",[DateIssue =
])=3D1,"One",(IIf(DatePart("q",[DateIssue
])=3D2,"Two",IIf(DatePart("q",[DateIssue
])=3D3,"Three",IIf(DatePart("q",[DateIssue ])=3D4,"Four")))))
But of course...

Can't get past partial progress. Converting a date to show it as the
current quarter, my query design field is QTR: DateIssue, with 'q' in
property format. Depending on date in DateIssue field, it will return a =
1,
2, 3 or 4. I want to turn that numeric quarter result into a string so =
it
will show as One, Two, Three . . . . , but having trouble and have not =
been
finding solution in the help menu. Any ideas how to begin? Thank you.
